55 // <synopsis>
56 // The functions in here can be used in the implementation of the
57 // CopyInfo class inside a SourceType class used by a RetypedArrayEngine.
58 // </synopsis>
59 
60 // <example>
61 // The example in RetypedArrayEngine shows how these functions can be used.
62 // </example>
63 
64 // <motivation>
65 // These functions make the implementation of the set and get
66 // functions in the SourceType objects of the RetypedArrayEngine easier.
67 // They are not part of the RetypedArrayEngine.h file to avoid
68 // the inclusion of that (heavy) file in a SourceType.
69 // </motivation>
